Happy Halloween

I guess it's a big "goodbye" to October.....crazy.  Even though we didn't go trick or treating this year and sadly those days are behind us...we still had fun celebrating Halloween.  We had our little traditional sloppy joe dinner at Grandma and Grandpa B's and Aunt Shelley brought all the fixins for a great little party.

















We decorated cookies and played games and we had THE cutest little monkey and fairy!











We hope you all had a safe and fun Halloween!


Cash for Candy

I thought this was pretty cool - being that our last dentist visit...BOTH kids had a cavity - sorry for ratting you out guys :)  Kenna is pretty bummed that she didn't go trick or treating this year because she would totally rather have the cash!


Kaysville Pediatric Dental is sponsoring a Halloween Candy Buy Back. Bring your Halloween candy to their office and they will buy it for $2.00 a pound!!! Dates to bring your candy are November 1,2,3,8,9 between 8am & 5pm.

All candy collected will be donated to the Davis County Family Connection Center Food Bank in Layton. The Family Connection Center was very excited when asked and were happy to be able to provide a small treat to the children of their families.



Kaysville Pediatric is located at 250 W. 200 N. #6 in Kaysville, Utah. (Just behind the Winger's).

Home Improvements

A little update of the goings on with our little project.  S is traveling alot but is getting so close to finishing the island.  I am so excited!  He does such amazing work and I just can't wait to see it put together!
























The house "looks" like a construction zone as the living room is f i n a l l y getting painted.  The high ceiling just gave me more cause to put it off, and off, and off.  But I have some really fun ideas for this room so there you go.....motivation!
Here is Matt's view from below :) I will be really glad when this wall is done :)

















My dear father graciously agreed when I gave him my birthday wish this year.....helping me put in the base boards.  What a guy!  They look amazing and it really finished off the room.  Even though the nail holes have to be filled, then comes the caulking, then painting again....sheesh this stuff is work!  It sure does make me apreciate Shawn all that more...working on this stuff myself.  I think...."put in the baseboards"......well, it's alot more work than it sounds :)








Next hopefully comes the backsplash........I think I will mail Santa my list early this year.....just in case he is busy too. (Elves are handy with tools, right?)
